How does NanoCLEAR work?
NanoCLEAR contains nanoparticles that are 3-11 nm in size.
Shown here under Scanning Electron Microscope are NanoCLEAR’s nanoparticles coating the inside of a core, which reflects the nanoparticles’ ability to alter wettability.
NanoCLEAR is also effective at removing organic build-up in producing wells, representing a long-lasting and less damaging treatment alternative to acid.

-
Residual oil saturation post-NanoCLEAR treatment dropped by 21%.
-
Effective water permeability improved by 8% during flow back post NanoCLEAR treatment.
​
-
NanoCLEAR can effectively sweep pore spaces in the core mobilizing the oil, thereby resulting in higher oil recovery.

Wettability alteration: contact angle & IFT
Contact angle testing has been completed on various cores. This image shows the contact angle between a water droplet and oil-covered Eagle Ford Shale rock. The presence of NanoCLEAR reduces contact angle by 22%. In comparison testing, NanoCLEAR demonstrated a reduction of 16% in contact angle vs. traditional nanofluid.
Interfacial Tension (IFT) between Texas crude oil and different aqueous phases was measured. NanoCLEAR reduced IFT by 42%. In addition, NanoCLEAR had a 20% reduction in IFT compared to traditional nanofluid demonstrating NanoCLEAR's higher performance.

Emulsification Testing
Tests were conducted to evaluate the de-emulsification capability of NanoCLEAR. As shown here, NanoCLEAR provides a fast separation of oil and water with a more distinct interface and higher clarity.
